HAZARDOUS SITES CLEAN-UP

Under the Act of October 18, 1988


Notice of Interim Response under the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act

Industrial Solvents and Chemical Company
Newberry Township, York County

   The Department of Environmental Protection (Department), under the authority of the Hazardous Sites Cleanup Act (HSCA) (35 P. S. §§ 6020.101--6020.1305), is considering initiating an interim action to provide an alternate drinking water supply to certain properties in the vicinity of the Industrial Solvents & Chemical Company (ISCC) site. Under the Department's proposed action a water line will be extended on the east side of Interstate 83 to private water supplies contaminated above health-based risk levels by the ground water contamination originating from the ISCC site.

   The ISCC site is a 9-acre parcel of land in Newberry Township, York County, adjacent to Interstate 83. The surrounding area is primarily rural, although residential, commercial and industrial developments are located within a close vicinity of the site. A number of private water supply wells have been contaminated by hazardous substances migrating from the ISCC site.

   ISCC was involved in the reprocessing of used solvents. Because of violations of hazardous waste requirements, the Department on July 6, 1989, terminated ISCC's authority to operate a hazardous waste treatment and storage facility. The site was abandoned in 1990 when ISCC declared bankruptcy. A total of 996 parties potentially responsible for the hazardous substances located at the ISCC site were identified by the Department.

   Because of the threat to human health and the environment posed by the ISCC site, the site was placed on the Pennsylvania Priority List for Remedial Response on October 26, 1991. The Department and a group of approximately 136 cooperating potentially responsible parties have conducted a number of interim actions at the site to address the release or threat of release of hazardous substances.

   The Department considered two alternatives: (1) continuing with the point-of-entry carbon treatment systems and monitoring program already in place; and (2) extending public water service to supplies contaminated above health-based risk levels. The Department prefers the second alternative for the following reasons. A water line extension is protective of human health and provides a permanent remedy. Also a water line extension is more cost effective than the long term maintenance and monitoring program required with the carbon treatment systems.

   This notice is provided under section 506(b) of HSCA (35 P. S. § 6020.506(b)), and publication of this notice starts the administrative record period under HSCA. The administrative record which contains information about this site and which supports the Department's decision to perform this action is available for public review and comment. The administrative record can be examined from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Department's office at One Ararat Boulevard, Harrisburg, PA 17110, by contacting Barbara Faletti at (717) 657-4592.

   The administrative record will be open for comment from the date of publication of this notice in the Pennsylvania Bulletin and will remain open for 90 days. Persons may submit written comments regarding this action to the Department before July 14, 1997 by mailing them to Barbara Faletti at the above address.

   The public will have an opportunity to present oral comments regarding the proposed action at a public hearing. The hearing has been scheduled for May 28, 1997, at 7 p.m. at the Newberry Township Administration Building, 1915 Old Trail Road, Etters, PA. Persons wishing to present formal oral comments at that hearing should register by 4 p.m. May 15, 1997 by calling Mary Ann Fischer at (717) 541-7969.

   Persons with a disability who wish to attend the hearing and require an auxiliary aid, service or other accommodation to participate in the proceedings, should contact Mary Ann Fischer at the above number or through the Pennsylvania Relay Service at 1 (800) 654-5984 (TDD) to discuss how the Department may accommodate their needs.

LAND RECYCLING AND ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION

Under Act 2, 1995

Preamble 1

Acknowledgement of Notices of Intent to Remediate submitted to the Department of Environmental Protection under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (35 P. S. §§ 6026.101--6026.908).

   Sections 302 and 303 of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (the act) require the Department of Environmental Protection to publish in the Pennsylvania Bulletin an acknowledgment noting receipt of any Notices of Intent to Remediate. An acknowledgment of the receipt of a Notice of Intent to Remediate identifies a site where a person proposes to, or has been required to, respond to a release of a regulated substance at a site. Persons intending to use the background or Statewide health standard to remediate a site must file a Notice of Intent to Remediate with the Department. A Notice of Intent to Remediate filed with the Department must provide a brief description of the location of the site, a list of known contaminants at the site, the proposed remediation measures for the site, and a description of the intended future use of the site. A person who demonstrates attainment of one or a combination of the cleanup standards identified under the act will be relieved of further liability for the remediation of the site for any contamination identified in reports submitted to and approved by the Department and shall not be subject to citizen suits or other contribution actions brought by responsible persons not participating in the remediation.

   For further information concerning the content of a Notice of Intent to Remediate, contact the Department of Environmental Protection Regional Office under which the notice appears. If information concerning this acknowledgment is required in an alternative form, contact the Community Relations Coordinator at the appropriate Regional Office listed. TDD users may telephone the Department through the AT&T Relay Service at 1 (800) 654-5984.

   The Department of Environmental Protection has received the following Notices of Intent to Remediate:

Notice of Intent to Issue
Title V Operating Permit 08-00001

   Under 25 Pa. Code § 127.521, notice is given that the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) intends to issue a Title V Operating Permit to the Tennessee Gas Pipeline Corporation for the 319 Wyalusing compressor station. The Wyalusing (319) compressor station is located in Wyalusing Township, Bradford County. The Tennessee Gas Pipeline Corporation representative to contact regarding the application is Nasir Ghani, Environmental Scientist, 1010 Milam Street, P. O. Box 2511, Houston, TX 77252-2511.

   The Wyalusing (319) compressor station is primarily used for the distribution of natural gas. As a result of the nitrogen oxides emitted, Wyalusing (319) is a major stationary source as defined in Title I, Part D of the Clean Air Act Amendments. The facility is therefore subject to Title V permitting requirements adopted in 25 Pa. Code Chapter 127, Subchapter G.
